Refurbished iPads Now Up to $100 Off

Looking for an especially good deal on an iPad this holiday season? Right now, Apple’s got some at its online store and for a “special limited time” (Apple isn’t saying how long, but my guess is until stock runs out), you can get a refurbished iPad and save up to $100. All refurbished iPads are tested and certified, and come with a 1-year warranty from Apple. They also include a brand new battery and outer shell. Refurbished orders also come with free shipping.

The company is currently offering refurbished iPads at these prices:

16GB, WiFi: $429 — $70 off

16GB, WiFi + 3G: $579 — $50 off

32GB, WiFi: $499 – $100 off

32GB, WiDi + 3G: $679 — $30 off

64GB, WiFi: $599 — $100 off

64GB, WiFi + 3G: $779 — $30 off

Of course, the refurbs are literally as good as new. They come with a new battery, a new outer shell, a new white box, and a full one-year warranty. You also get all the same accessories (USB cable, power adapter), and even the same free shipping.

I’ve purchased several refurbished items from Apple. Complaints I have: zero. In my mind, there’s actually no point in buying new gear; the refurb stuff is that good. Well, the iPad is really a great traveling companion this holiday. From surfing the Web, checking e-mail, watching movies, and listening to music, the iPad does it all. Hurry up!
